WE NEED another movie like Lord of the rings.

Damn man, when are we going to have something so epic as Lord of the Rings. And im not only talking about movie quality, we had lots of good movies since Lotr, some even better, but no Epic movies, and notice i capitalized epic. We need another medieval mix with fantasy type of movie. With swords, ogres, Ents, kings, Elfs and all of that. It was all so perfect in Lotr.

Just hear this:

So perfect, i almost wanna cry.

The last Epic movie that i loved was Troy. Why not make a movie based on Homero Odyssey this time? Or maybe a movie based on the Magic the Gathering Universe, that would be perfect.

They need to stop making movies about every single crap they can think of, they even make movies about the facebook (WTF?!?!?!).

I got all warm and fuzzy after the video. Ok, you just inspired me. I'm watching LotR when I get home from work. Maybe the Avengers will help your fix for an epic movie! At least I hope. :P

There will be another LotR movie: Bilbo the Hobbit.

I agree. Since LOTRs and Star Wars, we haven't hot a MAJOR blockbuster series that just rocks the house. Harry Potter is a very good series, but the anticipation that was LOTRs and the new Star Wars was like waiting in line to get into Disney Land as a kid.

Troy? The acting was atrocious. I wouldn't necessarily called that Epic.. At the very most enjoyable. But Yes Lord of the Rings was amazing. We do need another movie of that scale. ferrari2001

I think TC is talking about more large-scaled battles.

The Hobbit is coming out next year.cd_rom

I liked all of the Lotr movies except the first one. IMO that movie was boring but the rest were enjoyable.

i used to use 'epic' in the wrong way, than my girlfriend explained exactly what you just did here.

Kind of makes me lol in real life.

I'm sure there are plenty of medieval fantasy books besides LOTR that can be turned into films.

Just finished watching the entire extended LOTR trilogy and cannot wait for the Hobbit. I have to cd's with all the movie music and listen to it alot. It's going to take alot to be as EPIC as LOTR.

How about Sword of Truth movies?

Nothing will ever be as epic as LOTR. It's just not possible.

not unless they make The Name of the Wind into a movie.

A remake of lotr but Chuck Norris will be Aragorn this time and not Viggo Mortensen. That will be Epic!

Guillermo del Toro, come back to us! :cry: I'm a major GDT fanboy!

I agree, the LOTR movies are incredible.

Coming next year to HBO: George Martin'sA Game of Thrones.

Well there's Twilight, that's an epic. Epic piece of garbage.

If you really want to get into it, there have been epics since LOTR. Inception, being the most recent, fits the definition. But I'm assuming you want sword/sorcery type stuff and that's where you're probably going to have to wait a while.

Studios are still trying to cash in on LOTR's success and we keep getting less than impressive works that just aren't up to par. Chronicles of Narnia could have been amazing but it was lackluster and forgettable. The Golden Compass was a horrible adaptation. You know Universal will screw up The Wheel of Time. They're remaking both Conan the Barbarian and Red Sonja, the former looking ok and the latter looking awful. Did you like Clash of the Titans? CotT2 is in the works. Sam Raimi is still doing Warcraft. Terry Brooks' Shannara series is being made into films (it might be good since Warner is handling it!). And Ron Howard is going to destroy my favorite series of all time that is Stephen King's The Dark Tower.

this^^

owls of ga hoole seems to have a pretty epic vibe about it.

Though it is about owls.:P

And the 3D visuals are *******beautiful.

' Red Cliff ' is pretty epic, it runs for 286 minutes and quite watchable.

I would much rather have a high quality 4 hour movie that spans the entire series than a TV show that doesn't have anything to do with the book. This is one movie that could compete with the LOTR movies in terms of quality and interest.
